Oh, I see now that you did include your input file in the savannah bug.
Good.  But when I run that file, the output of the line in question is:

   Follow *note NewFile:: for information on the template processing.

So I remain baffled as to what you are "see"ing.

In any case, @ref is problematic wrt grammar.  Your sentence above
doesn't really make sense.  I suggest rewriting it, e.g.,

  @xref{NewFile}, for information on the template processing.

Bob wrote lots of examples in the manual for the different @...ref
commands.

(Also, the name "NewFile" doesn't seem very descriptive of the topic
"template processing", but I digress ...)

Best,
Karl
